You will be a crucial part of this conversation. We hope you will join us in keeping the dialogue focused on the policy issues that matter most.

So, how does it work? We'll ask you questions here over the next six months about what issues matter to you and the concerns and curiosities you have about public policy in your state. After you've weighed in, we'll hold a public vote to see what responses resonate most with our readers. Finally, we'll survey the influencers and bring them together for live public events to discuss solutions to the challenges you identify.

Health care is an important issue facing our state this election year. What questions do you have for our Influencers about health issues in California?
